It shows that VA is a lean democratic state now

NoVA, Richmond, and Tidewater pull (Urban crescent). However, it is still rural and Trump areas outside of that with huge economic concerns and brain drain, esp. SW. Almost every house down there had like 5 Trump signs in their front yards, many Confederate flags.

I feel that the GOP will dig in on Trumpism and you will see an exponential rise of us ("real Virginians") vs. NoVA/Richmond/Tidewater ("fake Virginians") even more than now. And yes, that is how GOP consultants and candidates refer to downstate, as ReVA to contrast from NoVA. It is sad and pathetic.
